Default Help! Where does this connector go?

Help!! I have one connector that doesn't have anywhere to go. Speartech modified my harness and I found a place for every connector except for this one. It's near the back of the intake and it comes out of the main harness right where the knock sensor wire does. There's only one wire going into it. Where is it supposed to go? (See the attached picture for a view of it.)

Thanks,
Matt

That's what it is. Should plug into your oil pressure sending unit. Or, if you're using aftermarket gauges, just cut the connector off and put whatever terminal is needed for your sending unit. Then you at least have the wire already run to the inside of the car.

Thanks John. Oil pressure is done with a 1/8" nylon tube in my car (mechanical gauge). Where is the stock oil pressure sending unit? Does the computer need it or is it strictly there for the gauge? I'll just plug it in and eventually use it whenever I get around to replacing the gauges with nice ones.

It plugs in right behind the intake manifold. It's only for the gauge so you can do whatever you want with it.
